Game thread: No. 9 Alabama at No. 24 Oklahoma

Reese is the worst player on our team. Hes a bench player and luckily when Bruner comes back his minutes will be slashed in half. Hes a great catch and shoot off the bench. anything more than that is comical
It's obvious you have no clue what you're talking about. He's got more done than anyone today. He's drove the ball better than any guard we have today.

I hope he comes on strong. But the moment Bruner is back we are better. Reese might be doing ok today. but 90% of the time he has no idea where he's supposed to be on the defensive end. just watch him. It doesn't matter. Game over. Reese keeps hitting these today I'll take it ALL back about his offense. But defense he WILL NEVER play in front of the ball like Bruner. Hes always behind.
 
I ask again, how many here still wish Reese would leave the program?
 
Down by as many as 12 points, Alabama cuts the deficit to 55-51 with 7:30 to play.

The Tide is on an 8-0 run and has made its last four shots from the floor. Oklahoma hasn't scored in 2:13

That's what we are talking about....today's game. Not Reese last year..or the year before. We are getting pounded without him today. And he's actually played really good since Bruner has been out.
 
The reality is that Bama has been playing bad basketball for the last several games but the opposing teams weren’t good enough to do anything about it. The run of good play was a nice surprise and fun while it lasted.
if our bad games keep us in it....

Its crazy that the people that actually know basketball see it differently. That should tell you something, your opinion or thoughts mean nothing.

Reece has become the easy whipping boy on here. He’s playing great. Never gone be a Herb type on defense, but still brings a lot to this team. We can all find things about each of these guys we don’t like, but Reece has always been the easy one for some to blame on everything bad that happens.

IMO we weren’t wrong at the beginning of the season to think Bama had a strong team and we’ve seen that in the big run, but they aren’t so talented that they can play with bricks on their feet or their head in the clouds.

This OU team missing 2 key players is not that talented and Bama has made a mess of it so far.

Even if Bama pulls out a win it will be a third consecutive very ugly game and Bama needs to play better.

Brothers, there were a bunch of Alabama fans last year who wished Reese, Petty, and Herb would leave. Needed to get all of Avery's bad players gone.

I keep telling them that Alabama is never going to be a team filled with 5 star one and done players. They need to build a team with a mix of players who play for 4 years and a few key younger players. T

Most of the time he's hedging on ball screens and recovering. You'll always be behind your guy doing that. And he doesn't guard the ball on the perimeter often. You act like he's getting beat off the dribble by big guys. Watching the game is one thing....knowing what you're watching is another. You want Reese out of the game all day...when he's playing the best. You also compare Herb and JQ. Herb isn't playing great on offense, but we can't win without him. Big difference, we could leave JQ at home and wouldn't know.

WTF are you taking about...CNO was almost apoplectic when discussing the offense against UK...don’t believe me, fine, but that’s our own coach

bruner hedges and isn't behind.......heres the thing, watch big ginger getting his second chance points. a large reason why we are losing and its nearly over Reese every time. JQ catches fire. but struggles on the bigger physical guards. we will struggle with that until jd comes. Honestly wild we are playing as bad as we are and in it. heck herb just had his 5th turnover haha
 
Oklahoma leads Alabama 59-58 with 3:44 remaining. Keon Ellis will be at the line for the Tide following the break.

Alabama has made six of its last seven shots from the floor while Oklahoma has made just two of its last 10 shots.

Can't believe the tictac fouls we've had called against us this half. Its like we're playing in Rupp or something. Herb gets a bloody nose and gets called for the foul. Petty gets position and the rebound but gets called. smh

In spite of that if we had just made shots we can make we're up 10 or more right now.
 
This is where we need a PG. Shack having the ball with the game on the line isn't a great thing. JQ is killing us not being able to be in there running the show at this point in the game.

Herb get behind that forward? I haven't said anything about Herb hedging on anything.
I meant Reese. was truly hilarious. Herb has 5 turnovers. petty has 5. shack cant hit a layup to save his life. the worst game of the year and we are down 2 haha
 
Be shocked if we pull this out. Offense, rebounding, ft shooting, and fvcking LAYUPS have been horrendous.
